ABAQUS/Explicit: Advanced Topics L7.2 Overview • Introduction • Surface-Based Coupling Constraints • Connector Elements • Surface-Based Ties • Mesh-Independent Point Fasteners • Mesh-Independent Surface Connections • Tips for Diagnosing Constraint and Connection Errors Copyright 2005 ABAQUS, Inc. ABAQUS/Explicit: Advanced Topics Introduction Copyright 2005 ABAQUS, Inc. ABAQUS/Explicit: Advanced Topics L7.4 Introduction • Constraints vs. connections – Constraints partially or fully eliminate degrees of freedom of a group of nodes and couple their motion to the motion of a master node (or nodes). – Examples of constraints include: • Rigid Bodies • Coupling Constraints • Shell-to-Solid Coupling • Surface-Based Ties – Connections model actual connections between parts, such as: ball joints, springs, dampers, bushings, links, hinges, spot welds, rivets, adhesives, bonds, etc. – Examples of connections include: • Connector Elements • Mesh-Independent Point Fasteners • Mesh-Independent Surface Connections Copyright 2005 ABAQUS, Inc.
